A 20/30 GHz personal access satellite system studyJPL is exploring the potential and feasibility of a personal access satellite system which will offer the user freedom and mobility. This paper defines the system concept and applications, presents a strawman design, and identifies the enabling technologies. The system as currently conceived could provide voice and data services to users in the Contiguous United States (CONUS) in the late 1990s to the early 2000s using the 20/30 GHz bands.
